“New residential (new residential complexes and individual homes i.e.) accounts for most of our Romanian business. Then come the individual home weatherization projects, because when adding cladding windows are replaced, too,” says Alexandru Oancea, marketing manager with Veka Romania.

Veka’s sales amount to about 65 million lei (some EUR14 million) a year, ZF has calculated. Veka Romania sales were 20% in the first seven months of 2018 than in the year-ago period.

Veka only has wholesale operations in Romania, working with a network of 180 partners, including Casa Noastra, Optimedia and smaller local companies. Veka sells PVC extrusions to them, which they use to assemble the windows.
